Yeah because the "concerning attitude" the other user was implying was literally being a nazi, which is fucked up.
Yes I absolutely agree.
You're totally right that would be fucking hilarious if I pretended to be a neuroscientist and identified the specific difference in brain structure that caused it and/or larped as a psychologist and formally medically diagnosed the bastard. But I'm not a podcast guru and I'm not saying that.
As I said above, my main point is that I am using the label "psychopath"/"sociopath" as a shorthand for demonstrating really fucked up, comically evil, damaging behaviour (hoarding wealth, snatching candy from a child) to the extent that it's reasonable to assume the person may possibly have an inherent condition partly caused by biological factors.
I remember reading somewhere that most billionaires and millionaires display sociopathic tendencies or something. Again, this is not a formal, psychological assessment based on a literature review or deep research.
Yes I agree with that for neurotypical people. However, I remember reading somewhere that people who have been formally diagnosed with ASPD have inherent structural differences in their brains. This doesn't imply 'go eugenics' or other dumb shit, it's just that early childhood intervention and support is important.
